Hi Kendra! I forgot about PortaPocket! Thanks for the (timely) reminder. 🙂

of course I can’t type and have too many w’s in the web addy. whoops! 😉

perhaps you might like my handy solution? PortaPocket offers more ways to use it and can wear it on multiple parts of the body, and either under or over your outfit 🙂 the L pocket = perfect for passports; M pocket = most cell phones, including iphone; S pocket = credit cards/ID size. Tall pocket = epiens or sunglasses. XL pocket coming soon for Galaxy4 /Note
All pockets are detachable and interchangeable for max versaility and multi-functionality.
see what I mean at wwww.portapocket.com
Cheers! 🙂

Hi Izzie,
Ha ha! Ew!
Okay, admittedly enough, while living on a cliffside in Hawaii and never being able to properly dry anything, my adventure towel eventually took on a bit of an odour that wasn’t entirely pleasant (to put it lightly!). But it lasted long enough that I felt pretty good about the whole thing and not too guilty about replacing it; however after a hot-water wash and high-temp dry, it stopped smelling (for a while).

BEAUTIFUL idea on the sarong – which is so very multi-functional as a piece of travel gear (and big enough to cover you up when running from the bathroom to the bedroom!).
I hadn’t really considered its quick-drying properties however, since they’re usually cotton. But I guess they’re thin enough that it’s negligible.

Thanks for the (experiential) tip!

I worked as a tour leader on an overland truck, where up to 22 passengers would be camping and using, usually, these towels. We were in Africa or S.America – places where thing typically dry quickly anyway – but I cannot tell you how unpleasant is it to be in a truck full of stinky towels hanging from the overhead racks!! Mouldy, musty, bad-feet smell. Yuck. They may be quick dry, relatively, but still not quick dry enough to be dry after morning ablutions on early pack-up-camp-and-on-the-truck travel days. Perhaps it’s just that all my passengers never washed the towels, the dirty urchins, but I suspect it’s just that bacteria breed on these towels like nobody’s business.

I always travel with a large (much cheaper, much quicker drying) sarong as a towel. No good for cold climates but fine for large swathes of the world. Never looked back. 🙂

Hi Shereen,
I’m in the market for another passport wallet myself (which was stolen from my place in Grenada along with my passport!!!!!!)….I’ll be getting this exact same one again. Love it.

Thanks, Abby! Happy travels!

Hi Lauren – Glad you like this collection! The travel adaptor is a must – it will always be used and appreciated by a world traveler.
